Hello! So glad someone started a new chain. I rock thus diet Mon)Fri, but weekends are.hard!!

HI Girls,
No book Yet.. You have no idea how excited I am about this weight loss journey.. Thanks you for being here.. I need you... Age 43! just took my measurements and need to loose about 35 lbs.
Had my eggs and sipping green tea too! .. I was on pintrest and saw that there are lots of goodies on there too till I get my bookie..lol Friend me at theresamcd2
See you around..

thank you sooooo much for inviting me to this group. I am very new to the 17dd. I am actually waiting for my book to arrive in the mail, although I unofficially started last week. I did really well and all thorugh the weekend......was down 4 lbs by friday, then hit a huge wall last night. Overtired. I have my daughter and her family staying with us until their kitchen is remodeled. I am worn out. Anyway......struggling this morning. I am eating low carb, just not 17dd. I need a nap LOL and I am going to the grocery store. And REALLY need support........so I am very very glad you started this. Wishing everyone a goood good week. Hugs, Dyanna

Hi Everyone!

Do you mind if I join? I saw your link on The Doctors TV site.

I will be starting tomorrow with both of my daughters! One is 21 and one is 18.

I am a 49yo, work from home Mom of 3. Married for 26 years. Both girls are in college this Fall and my son will be in 4th grade. I have well over 100# to "get rid of". I am planning to focus on it 10# at a time! I think the hardest parts for me will be to eat more on a schedule and to exercise between my job at the computer 8 hours and being taxi-mom for 3 kids. But I have to do it!!

Good Luck Everyone!

Hi Everyone!!!
I have been 'sort of' starting the 17 DD for a couple of weeks (not quite following, cheat weekends, etc) ...I will stay positive and call them my practice weeks. So this time it's really it! I'm ready.

I turned 40 in March and had my first baby on Christmas day 2011...so there have been lots of milestones in the past few months. I want to lose baby weight and more...a total of about 52 lbs. I am back to exercise now (aerobics, running, spinning classes and weights at home). Like trishDC, my goals are to focus on today and plan for tomorrow.

Even with some cheats I'm down about 6 lbs so I'm very excited to get serious on Cycle 1 and lose some more.

Please feel free to add me as a friend, I thing the accountability of you seeing my journals will be good motivation for me.

See you all on the other posts.

Hi everyone!! I am hoping to lose about 40 pounds and look and feel better. Cant wait to have more energy....

Hi Everyone,

I would like to join in as well! I bought my 17 day diet book a while ago online to save money through Kobo Ebook Service; I can access it anywhere using my Kobo E-Reader, Blackberry Playbook and Phone, or Computer. The free app download is available on many different devices and the book is only $15.99 (You can also get the cookbooks as well). http://www.kobobooks.com

I completed cycle 1 once (lost 14lbs) and then kind of fell off the wagon (trying to break our habit of eating out ALOT) but I am raring to get back on track and do this right. I have about 100lbs to lose and love that this is a plan that can really be a lifestyle not a diet. A challenge is a great idea and it is always helpful to see how others are making it work for them. My day 1 starts tomorrow as I have a side challenge with my roommates that runs Tues-Monday.

If anyone is interested, I made a cool little spreadsheet to hang on the fridge that I will be using to check off my daily requirements and lists allowable foods at a glance to help me stay on track. I would be happy to email it to you if you like, just send me your email address here and I will send it to you.

Cheers, Tetcha

Hello all!
I just finished the first cycle and lost 13 pounds. I have opted to not do the full cycles just because it's so hard to stay on top of, and quite expensive when grocery shopping! ((eek))!! I still eat gluten free through the week with healthy cheat snacks on the weekends. I've decided I am going to do the first cycle once every other month just to keep on track. Good luck everyone.

Hi, I am on day 11 of 17 day diet.

Hi guys you seem like a really nice group!
I did c1 back in 2011 and lost ten lbs and kept it off, then didn't continue ( why?!? I think because the losses slowed down!) so here I am to lose the next ten. Actually the last ten. Sick of this belly.
Anyway, I'm here to tell you it works!!!! I'm starting tomorrow June 13
